Learning Objective:

Educators will use AI to generate a timeline, facilitating student engagement and fostering evaluative judgment by assessing and enhancing the AI-generated content.

Purpose:

This challenge illustrates how AI can aid in creating foundational resources while encouraging students to use evaluative judgment. By generating a timeline in Padlet, educators can prompt students to critically assess the content for biases, gaps, or inaccuracies and enrich it by adding relevant events. This exercise not only deepens students’ engagement with the subject but also builds their skills in critical thinking and source evaluation.

Challenge:

For today’s challenge, use Padlet's AI feature to create a timeline about a topic from your course. Students can exercise evaluative judgment by reviewing the AI-generated timeline, identifying biases or inaccuracies, and adding important events to enrich the timeline. This activity encourages evaluative judgement and deeper engagement with the subject.

Let's do it!

- Login or create a free Padlet account here.

- Navigate to AI Recipes and click Timeline.

- Enter the Level, Topic, and Time Period for your course content.

- Click Create to generate the AI-generated timeline.

Once the timeline is created, share it with your students. They will be able to add events and comment on the timeline directly.

Encourage students to:

-Evaluate the timeline for any biases, gaps, or inaccuracies.

Add missing events based on their research to enhance the timeline’s accuracy.
